English question from High Court exam, 2026 by JKSSB

Fill in the blanks with Correct Article:
"I need to buy ____ Milk."

Last updated Sep 6, 2026
Correct Answer: Option D — no article
Explanation:
"Milk" is an uncountable noun (mass noun).

In general contexts, uncountable nouns do not take indefinite articles like "a" or "an".

"The" is only used when referring to a specific batch or container of milk (e.g., "Pass me the milk on the table"). Since this sentence refers to milk in a general sense, no article is required.

Corrected sentence: "I need to buy milk."
